I love it!

Really cute! What is the approximate size of this? Do you use one whole side of the box as one side of the file folder?

That is SO cute! I love it! I am just not that creative!

 

[JESW]

Wow! That is awesome! Real nice job!

Did you have a template for that? I recently bought the one for the Coluzzle but it doesn't look that big.

I want to hear about the instructor: I am so nosy!

Your work is beautiful! I can't believe you made that from a cereal box!

hey guys, the actual rusty pickle file folder was made out of real file folder stuff. I didn't have any file folders on hand so I used a cheerio box (which is slightly heavier) anyhow, I just used the file folder template from this site:

and made it bigger using ms word. you only need 3 folders to make the book and you just put them so that the tabs are not all in the same place. Decorate each folder any way you want to and then when you are done, take your eyelet setter and punch 2 holes in the crease (middle) and then you can bind it with whatever you want to. maggie

Maggie - I love how this came out! I told you the project in this class was cute. When I went, Lance taught the class & it was right after Teresa & Sarah gave their notice so he was scrambling - we had a lot of cutting out in the wrong dimensions/not exactly like the original project but it is really cute. Love your Disney version too!!!
